LINHEAT™

LINHEAT™ enables the application of any type of heat treatment in the same working chamber, before and after thermo-chemical processing of a metal component, such as application of LINTERPROCESS™ technology, or on its own. It is used to further enhance the final properties of the diffusion case and core of a metal component. It eliminates the need for additional processing equipment, relocation of the component for additional heat treatment, cleaning/protection of the component and other additional processing steps. LINHEAT™ processing in controlling and protective atmosphere can be applied to the metal component together with or independent of the thermo-chemical processing.

Various custom heat treatment processes for different metals and alloys are created by SANOVA on the basis of LINHEAT™ technology, such as LINHARD™ for hardening and LINTEMP™ for tempering.
